Sol FD WL 2022.06.07

Post by nicosolcy »

Sol is really quiet and this is annoying after a couple of months of hot action! We are going to be left solely with 3027 and 3029 tomorrow - if the latter survives the day.

I had to break the SER file in PIPP, remove some offending frames, regenerate the SER file and restack, as a bird decided to do a cameo from frame 171 through 183. I include the initial stack which - ahem - has some artifacts ;)

Oh, just spotted a lone ranger as well :)

Lesson learned - spend a bit more time reviewing the final stacked image and not rely on Solarham / Spaceweather for the spots!

Thanks Warren!

I just played in Photoshop a bit - using darken blend mode to stack the images "properly". Learning something new in PS every day :)
